#1636 Is Catherine McNeil playing alongside Gemma Ward in Pirates of the Caribbean? Update: no

Much has been made of Gemma Ward’s first blockbuster role as a mermaid in the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides. But if I’m not mistaken, she’s joined in the film by another Australian supermodel – Catherine McNeil. Check out the trailer below, and screengrab above, taken at 1:53. Am I on the money?

Update: It’s actually Spanish actress Astrid Berges-Frisbey. But as you’ll see from the comparison photo above (thanks to Alyx Gorman for the tip-off), both ladies do look rather similar.
